Baynote provides real-time Product and Content Recommendations & Social Search to websites via an on-demand Web 2.0 service based on the collective wisdom of like-minded peers to increase conversions by 20-200%. It takes an average of six clicks on a Website for a user to find pertinent information through search or navigation. As a result, over 80% of visitors are abandoning these sites and taking millions in potential revenue with them. Utilizing proven research in the social sciences, Baynote combines social understanding with state-of-the-art Web 2.0 engineering to match site visitors with the best products and content available. Baynote’s revolutionary approach uses the Wisdom of Invisible Crowds™ — the implicit, emergent behaviors of website visitors who are unknown to each other and act as anonymous visitors — to guide like-minded website visitors to the most useful content and products. It is currently used by eCommerce sites to increase NET revenues by 20% or more, eMarketing sites to increase lead generation by over 200%, and eSupport sites to reduce the cost of support by as much as 50% while increasing customer satisfaction through self-service. Baynote is a winner of AO100 Top 100 private company award.
